Hi, I hacked offb.c to get aty128fb to recognize the new chipset called 
"RageM3p1". I added line 449, a statement to use this name (sorry, no patches, 
it's already very dodgy to use lynx on a webmail interface...). The problem is 
that it doesn't show up more than 8bit colors. I also got drm to compile in the 
kernel replacing drmP.h, r128_dma.c by the ones from Michel, and adding 
compat-pre24.h. I could get Xpmac and XFree4 (debs) with native drivers to show 
up with 256 colors.... A bit more would be cool.
Olaf, the XF86Config.papaya doesn't solve everything, I'll try in a second with 
ofonly. If it works I'll owe a beer to your english chaps.
